In general, printed antennas have a narrow bandwidth characteristic and many people want to find out the method of bandwidth improvement through complicated procedure. So we want to reform the conventional printed antenna characteristic by using the folded dipole's superiority to unit dipole. But it is hard to feed thr printed folded dipole antenna, we use the CPW, which is widely used in microwave IC or MMIC applications and have many advantage to the conventional microstrip line, to feed the folded slot antenna. It is confirmed that the improvement in the bandwidth characteristic of CPW fed folded slot antenna, as much as 20%, through the measurment of designed and implemented antenna.

In this paper, a CPW-fed dual-band monopole antenna with two branch strips for WLAN(Wireless Local Area Networks) applications was designed, fabricated and measured. The proposed antenna is based on a CPW-feeding structure, and composed of two branch strips and then designed and tuned the length of two branch lines to obtained required frequencies bands. To obtain the optimized parameters, we used the simulator, Ansoft's High Frequency Structure Simulator(HFSS) and carried out simulation about parameters $L_5$, $L_8$, $W_3$, $W_5$, $W_9$. The proposed antenna is fabricated on the FR-4 substrate using the obtained parameters. The numerical and experiment results demonstrated that the proposed antenna obtained the -10 dB impedance bandwidth 1,095 MHz (1.57~2.665 GHz) for 2.4 GHz band and 1,680 MHz (4.99~6.67 GHz) for 5 GHz band satisfied requirement while simultaneously covering the WLAN bands. And characteristics of gain and radiation patterns are determined for WLAN operating bands.

In this paper, we suggested a CPW-fed UWB antenna with uni-planar sectoral structure. The area where radiation device face ground is designed to have the shape of tapered slot based on exponential function. We modified a rectangular bow-tie dipole structure antenna and thus formed a multi-resonant mode. From this, we expanded the impedance bandwidth and made a feature satisfying VSWR of less than 2 between $3.1\sim10.6GHz$. The test result showed that the return loss less than -10 dB was met in the full-band UWB system and maximum gain of $0.9\sim3.1dB$ was made with the half-power beamwidth of $40.1\sim89.9^{\circ}$ on XY plane(Theta, $Phi=90^{\circ}$) and the full band. By using CPW-fed structure with no ground on the back of the substrate, the suggested antenna is easy to design and its miniaturization is also possible.

In this paper, a design method for a coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed 2-element quasi-Yagi antenna (QYA) is studied. A balun between CPW and coplanar strip (CPS) which feeds a planar dipole is implemented by connecting the one end of ground strips in a CPW to a signal strip. The antenna size is reduced by bent strip dipole and reflector, and an integrated balun. The proposed antenna was designed for the operation in a UHF radio frequency identification (RFID) band of 902-928 MHz, and the effects of various parameters such as dipole length, reflector length, distance between dipole and reflector, feed position were examined. The antenna with a size of $90mm{\times}80mm$ was fabricated on an FR4 substrate, and the experiment results reveal a frequency band of 885-942 MHz for a voltage standing wave ratio < 2, a gain > 4.3 dBi, and a front-to-back ratio > 7 dB over the frequency band for the UHF RFID.

In this paper, a design method for a compact CPW-fed slot antenna using SRRs is studied. The structure of the proposed slot antenna is a rectangular slot antenna loaded with SRR conductors inside the slot to reduce the antenna size. Optimal design parameters are obtained by analyzing the effects of the gap between the SRR conductors and slot, and the width of the SRR conductors on the input VSWR characteristic. The optimized compact slot antenna operating at 2.45 GHz band is fabricated on an FR4 substrate with a dimension of 36 mm by 30 mm. The length of the proposed compact slot antenna is reduced to 14.3% compared to that of a conventional rectangular slot antenna. Experiment results show that the antenna has a desired impedance characteristic with a frequency band of 2.4-2.49 GHz for a VSWR < 2, and measured gain of 2.3 dBi at 2.45 GHz.

In this paper, a design method for a CPW-fed slot antenna for harmonic suppression is studied. The structure of the proposed slot antenna is a rectangular slot antenna appended with stepped impedance resonators (SIRs) at both ends of the slot symmetrically. Optimal design parameters are obtained by analyzing the effects of the length and width of the SIRs on the input reflection coefficient. The optimized harmonic-suppressed slot antenna operating at 2.45 GHz WLAN band is fabricated on an FR4 substrate with a dimension of 42 mm by 30 mm. The slot length of the proposed harmonic-suppressed slot antenna is reduced to 33.3% compared to that of a conventional rectangular slot antenna owing to the appended SIRs. Experiment results show that the antenna has a desired impedance characteristic with a frequency band of 2.39-2.49 GHz for a VSWR < 2, and a measured gain of 2.5 dBi at 2.45 GHz.
